First job:Office Assistant at a Landscaping Company, where I like to think I mastered the art of data entry.

Current job?Civil Engineer at Kimley-Horn & Associates

Places you've lived:San Diego born & rqaised, and have never left - except for when I worked in Minnesota for 3 months over the winter last year, which validated my decision to never leave San Diego. t7 degree and partly-cloudy >>-45 degree and "too cold to snow".

What does your role in YMF involve?Planning social events as a platform for networking, and encouraging members to attend! Stephanie and I see a lot of happy hours in your future, and some new events too! We'll do our best to find some cool spots around San Diego! Suggestions welcome :)

What is your favorite thing about your career? I work on mostly transit-related projects at this point in my career. I love being able to work on projects and team with partners to produce state of the art transit facilities that improve operations and encourage increased ridership within local communities. I also really admire the talent in this industry. Just three years into my career, I feel like I've already had the opportunity to work with so many brilliant and passionate people. I feel so fortunate to be building my career within this industry!
